RESEARCH PROJECT

My research project involves building a device that directly measures the force-distance relationship between the vesicle and a surface. Shape of the contact zone plays an important role in the process of interaction. Reflection Interference Contrast Microscopy (RICM) will be used to measure this shape. The device can thus be used to measure interaction forces of the orders of nanoNewton along with information on the separation and shape of the contact zone.
